In 1943, there was an urgent need for Animal Farm. The Soviet Union had become Britain s ally in the war against Nazi Germany, and criticism of Stalin s brutal regime was either censored or discouraged. In any case, many intellectuals on the left still celebrated the Soviet Union, claiming that the terrors of its show trials, summary executions and secret police were either exaggerated or necessary. But, to Orwell, Stalin was always a \ disgusting murderer\ and he wanted to remind people of this fact in a powerful and memorable way.But how to do it? A political essay would never reach a wide enough audience; a traditional novel would take too long to write. Orwell hit on the inspired idea of combining the moralism of the traditional beast fable with the satire of Gulliver s Travels. A group of farmyard animals, led by the pigs, overthrow their human masters. Their revolution is inspired by high ideals: the farm will be run in the interests of its animals with no more slaughtering, plenty of food for all and comfort in retirement. But when Napoleon the pig takes command, he quickly corrupts their principles, creating a new tyranny worse than the old.Orwell wrote Animal Farm in the middle of the Second World War, but at first no publishers wanted to touch it. It was finally published in August 1945, once the war was over. This little book quickly became a seminal text in the emerging cold war (a phrase that Orwell himself coined). It also became a site of that conflict itself, suffering various attempts to subvert or change its meaning.Today, Animal Farm remains a powerful fable about the nature of tyranny and corruption which applies for all ages.Our edition also includes the following essays: Shooting an Elephant; Charles Dickens; Inside the Whale; The Frontiers of Art and Propaganda; Literature and Totalitarianism; Fascism and Democracy; Patriots and Revolutionaries; Catastrophic Gradualism; Some Thoughts on the Common Toad; Why I Write; Writers and Leviathan

The Sunday Times bestseller and the definitive story behind the ITV factual drama White House Farm, about the horrific killings that took place in 1985. On 7 August 1985, Nevill and June Bamber, their daughter Sheila and her two young sons Nicholas and Daniel were discovered shot to death at White House Farm in Essex. The murder weapon was found on Sheila s body, a bible lay at her side. All the windows and doors of the farmhouse were secure, and the Bambers son, 24-year-old Jeremy, had alerted police after apparently receiving a phone call from his father, who told him Sheila had gone berserk with the gun. It seemed a straightforward case of murder-suicide, but a dramatic turn of events was to disprove the police s theory. In October 1986, Jeremy Bamber was convicted of killing his entire family in order to inherit his parents substantial estates. He has always maintained his innocence.Drawing on interviews and correspondence with many of those closely connected to the events â “ including Jeremy Bamber â “ and a wealth of previously unpublished documentation, Carol Ann Lee brings astonishing clarity to a complex and emotive case. She describes the years of rising tension in the family that culminated in the murders, and provides clear insight into the background of each individual and their relationships within the family unit.Scrupulously fair in its analysis, The Murders at White House Farm is an absorbing portrait of a family, a time and a place, and a gripping account of one of Britain s most notorious crimes.

An 365-day anthology of readings from one of the most influential writers of all time, George MacDonald, compiled by CS Lewis himself.MacDonald was a major Christian writer of the late nineteenth, early twentieth centuries. He influenced nearly everyone who was a major twentieth century writer (including Lewis Carroll, WH Auden, JRR Tolkien, Walter de la Mare, and CS Lewis. Not only was he a pioneer in the fantasy fiction genre, laying the path for people like Tolkien to write Lord of the Rings, but also a major Christian thinker, which influenced Lewis profoundly.Lewis, in fact, wrote that MacDonald was his â ˜masterâ ™, and said â ˜I know hardly any other writer who seems to be closer, or more continually close, to the Spirit of Christ Himself.â ™These words will challenge and uplift you, and illuminate the faith which underpins all of CS Lewisâ ™s popular and enduring writing.

MacDonald Harris s posthumously published novel is set in the 1920 s against a backdrop of airships, mysticism, erotic love and a Europe that is picking itself up after WW1. The League of Nations is a giant airship constructed by the same factory in Germany that made the Zeppelins, and is owned by Moira, the leader of a semi-religious cult. The captain is Georg von Plautus, a Prussian WW1 Zeppelin commander who harbours a terrible secret from a bombing raid over London in 1916. Moira s followers have embarked with her on an extraordinary voyage in this airship to a place that she calls Giaconda. The novel explores the lives of these characters on board taking the reader through a heady mix of sexual entanglements, metaphysics, and Blavatsky and Swedenborg influenced seances. Towards the end of the novel it is apparent that all of Moira s devotees have one thing in common. This is perhaps MacDonald Harris most surprising novel, even bearing in mind that each one of his 15 published novels never failed to surprise the reader of the preceding one. The Carp Castle was completed shortly before his death in 1993 and seems to have disappeared at this time. Its re-emergence followed the very successful re-publication of his most successful book The Balloonist which left critics in the UK asking for more, and is part of the renaissance of this immensely talented writer who had so many followers and critical admirers in the 1980 s

Wife, widow, mother, survivor, the story of the last queen of Henry VIII. Catherine Parr was enjoying her freedom after her first two arranged marriages when she caught the attention of the elderly Henry VIII. The most reluctant of all Henry s wives, she offered to become his mistress rather than submit herself to the dangers of becoming Henry s queen. This only increased Henry s enthusiasm for the vibrant, intelligent young widow and Catherine was forced to abandon her handsome lover, Thomas Seymour, for the decrepit king. She quickly made her role as queen a success, providing Henry VIII with a domestic tranquillity that he had not known since the early days of his first marriage. For Henry, Catherine was a satisfactory choice but he never stopped considering a new marriage, much to Catherine s terror. Catherine is remembered as the wife who survived but, without her strength of character it could have been very different. It was a relief for Catherine when Henry finally died and she could secretly marry Thomas Seymour. Left with no role in government affairs in her widowhood, she retired to the country, spending time at her manors at Chelsea and Sudeley. It was here that her heart was broken by her discovery of a love affair between her stepdaughter, the future Elizabeth I, and her husband. She died in childbirth accusing her husband of plotting her death. Traditionally portrayed as a matronly and dutiful figure, Elizabeth Norton s new biography shows another side to Catherine. Her life was indeed one of duty but, throughout, she attempted to escape her destiny and find happiness for herself. Ultimately, Catherine was betrayed and her great love affair with Thomas Seymour turned sour.

Audiokniha: Emocemi nabitý román o třech ženách, jejichž osudy se propletou v Austrálii devatenáctého století, kde bojují za vykoupení a svobodu. Když naivní mladá guvernantka Evangeline otěhotní se synem svého zámožného londýnského zaměstnavatele, netuší, jak závažné to pro ni bude mít následky. Poté, co ji služka navíc křivě obviní z krádeže, je Evangeline propuštěna a zatčena. S hrůzou se dozvídá, že byla odsouzena ke čtrnácti letům v australské trestanecké kolonii ve Van Diemenově zemi, dnešní Tasmánii. Neví, co ji čeká, ale jedna věc je jistá: dítě, které nosí pod srdcem, se narodí během několikaměsíční plavby.

The full story of Josephine Baker⠙s wartime and intelligence work in France and North Africa  Before the Second World War, Josephine Baker (1906⠓1975) was one of the most famous performers in the world.

Instead, Baker turned spy for the French Secret Services.  In this engaging, deeply researched study, Hanna Diamond tells the full story of Baker⠙s actions for the French and Allied powers in World War Two. Drawing on previously unseen material, Diamond reveals the vital role Baker played throughout the war, from counterintelligence work for the Allied landings in North Africa to serving in the French Air Force in 1944⠓45. A woman of colour operating in a white male environment, Baker exploited her celebrity to enable her war work across France, Spain, Portugal, North Africa, and the Middle East.  This groundbreaking account is the first to reveal the full significance of Baker⠙s wartime contribution.

Unlike the farm-to-table life as we know it here, where precious farm foods are cooked with recipes, often with some elaboration, real farm food means eating the same thing day after day when it’s plentiful, putting it up for when it s not, and cooking it very, very simply because the farm demands so much more time in the field than in the kitchen. This beautiful, touching, and ultimately common sense book is about a life that s balanced between the idea that a life chooses you and that you in turn choose it and then live it wholeheartedly and largely. Thank you, Nancy, for sharing your rich, intentional and truly inspiring life. --Deborah Madison Nancy Hachisu’s amazing depth of knowledge of Japanese food and culture shines through in every part of this book. You will feel as if you live next door to her...savoring and learning her down-to-earth approach to cooking and to loving food. --Hiroko Shimbo Taking a peek into Nancy Hachisu s stunning Japanese Farm Food is like entering a magical world. It s a Japan that used to be, not the modern Japan defined by the busyness of Tokyo, but a more timeless place, a place whose rhythms are set by seasons and traditions and the work of the farm. Japanese Farm Food is so much more than a cookbook. This book has soul. Every vegetable, every tool has a story. Who grew this eggplant? Who made this soy sauce? Nancy doesn t have to ask, Where does my food come from? She knows. Here s a woman who grows and harvests her own rice, grain by grain. Not that she asks or expects us to do the same at all. What she does offer is a glimpse into her life in rural Japan, with its shoji screens and filtered light, and recipes from her farm kitchen that you can t wait to try. --Elise Bauer, SimplyRecipes.com Japanese Farm Food is a lovely book about the culture, landscape, and food of Japan, a true insider s view of the Japanese kitchen, from farm to table, by a passionate and talented writer. --Michael Ruhlman

In a busy café in Hove, a chance meeting brings Matthew and Catherine together for the first time. Matthew is retired and struggling in his quest to become a writer, while Catherine has had a successful career as an actress. Born in Brighton in 1947, Catherine was fascinated from an early age by film stars and yearned to be an actor. An advert in the local paper asked for two local teenage girls to be extras in a film being shot in Brighton. She auditioned and successfully got her chance. From that point on, her acting career blossomed. Catherine⠙s story fascinates Matthew, not only her film and television roles, but her relationships with her parents, the friendship with her two best friends, and the men she fell in love with throughout her life. From Brighton to London, to Dorset, and finally back to Brighton, covering over seventy years, Catherine is a thrilling story of fulfilling your dreams, friendships, love and loss.

It was obvious to Catherine Simpson from the beginning that there was something different about her first child, Nina.Motherhood had always felt like Catherine⠙s destiny, and she⠙d grown up nurturing joyful visions of the family she⠙d create. But her dreams crashed headfirst into the reality of parenthood. It seemed that the world was not Nina-shaped, and no matter how hard they both tried, they had to fight almost everything ⠓ especially once Nina started school.Aged ten, Nina⠙s autism was diagnosed and a door opened. It became clear why she didn⠙t think or behave the way other children did, but faced with school bullies, dismissive doctors and insensitive peers, her difficulties were far from over. She and Catherine still felt as though it was them against a world that demanded Nina change as a child and Catherine as a mother.While Nina remained resolutely herself, Catherine adapted. Mothering an autistic child lit a fierce determination within her and underlined the power of her unconditional love.This is an unforgettable story that shows what a gift it is to see someone not as the world tells them they should be, but as they are.

Catherine of Aragon was the first wife and queen of England s most married King, Henry VIII. She did not know it, but she would be immortalised as the first in a line of six queens still hotly debated and discussed today. Catherine and Henry were married for over twenty years, longer than his other five marriages combined, but she knew him even longer. Arriving in England in 1501 to marry Henry s elder brother, Arthur, she was widowed shortly after and was forced to endure seven years of uncertainty and hardship before marrying her second husband. Henry and Catherine were happy and indeed in love on their wedding day in 1509, and they had a lot of shared interests and ambitions.Setbacks and losses would tear apart this once-happy couple. As one of three parties involved in the King s Great Matter, which changed the face of England forever, Catherine refused to back down and fought for what she believed to be right until the very end. This book gives us a glimpse of Catherine s world: her family, her friends, her enemies, and her legacy, which still inspires us with her loyalty and courage to this day.

The image of Catherine of Aragon has always suffered in comparison to the heir-providing Jane Seymour or the vivacious eroticism of Anne Boleyn. But when Henry VIII married Catherine, she was an auburn-haired beauty in her twenties with a passion she had inherited from her parents, Isabella and Ferdinand, the joint-rulers of Spain who had driven the Moors from their country.This daughter of conquistadors showed the same steel and sense of command when organising the defeat of the Scots at the Battle of Flodden and Henry was to learn, to his cost, that he had not met a tougher opponent on or off the battlefield when he tried to divorce her.Henry VIII introduced four remarkable women into the tumultuous flow of England s history: Catherine of Aragon and her daughter Bloody Queen Mary; and Anne Boleyn and her daughter, the Virgin Queen Elizabeth. From this contest, between two mothers and two daughters, was born the religious passion and violence that inflamed England for centuries, says David Starkey. Reformation, revolution and Tudor history would all have been vastly different without Catherine of Aragon.Giles Tremlett s new biography is the first in more than four decades to be dedicated entirely and uniquely to the tenacious woman whose marriage lasted twice as long as those of Henry s five other wives put together. It draws on fresh material from Spain to trace the dramatic events of her life through Catherine of Aragon s own eyes. Enthralling biography . . . this lively and richly detailed book . . . describing the queen s fierce battle to retain her crown, Tremlett brilliantly breathes life into the shadowy figure of a stubborn and finally heroic woman.

**Explore the fascinating history of the real Downton Abbey as the Crawley family saga makes its way on to the big screen with Downton Abbey, the major motion picture** An excellent depiction of English aristocratic life ... a compelling portrait Publisher s Weekly* * * * * *The follow-up to the international bestseller Lady Almina and the Real Downton Abbey, this book moves the story into the 1920s, and focuses on the remarkable American heiress who came to reign at Highclere Castle.Sometimes the facts are even more extraordinary than the fiction ... This book tells the story of Lady Catherine, a beautiful American girl who became the chatelaine of Highclere Castle, the setting for Julian Fellowes award-winning drama Downton Abbey. Charming and charismatic, Catherine caught the eye of Lord Porchester (or Porchey , as he was known) when she was just 20 years old, and wearing a pale yellow dress at a ball. She had already turned down 14 proposals before she eventually married Porchey in 1922. But less than a year later Porchey s father died suddenly, and he became the 6th Earl of Carnarvon, inheriting a title and a Castle that changed both their lives forever. Catherine found herself suddenly in charge of a small army of household staff, and hosting lavish banquets and weekend house parties. Although the couple were very much in love, considerable challenges lay ahead for Catherine. They were immediately faced with the task of saving Highclere when debts threatened to destroy the estate. As the 1920s moved to a close, Catherine s adored brother died and she began to lose her husband to the distractions London had to offer. When the Second World War broke out, life at the Castle would never be the same again. Drawing on rich material from the private archives at Highclere, including beautiful period photographs, the current Countess of Carnarvon transports us back to the thrilling and alluring world of the real Downton Abbey and its inhabitants.
